Greetings from an expatriate 'Geordie' ...a big fan of Sunderland, but a bigger fan of Newcastle.heart

Yes, I agree, they should have afforded Di Cannio more time ...

 

If anyone needs the sack, it's Pardew..

Beaten by Hull, and at home....what a disgrace.Smiley Frustrated

Seems a bit tough Charlie but apparently he was sacked following a bust up with some of the players

Poyet is third favourite to replace him at 6/1

I think the answer to that Pete is that the manager did choose the team!

Turns out he tried to single out Lee Cattermole blaming him for the third goal,BIG mistake,Catermole turned on him and got the backing if the other players.

You could do a lot worse Charlie.

 

Granted no Premiership track record but has proved that he is a good man manager and can organise a team to play in a disciplined way as a unit. 

 

He is a believer in possesion football, (whilst you've got the ball the opposition can't score), maybe not the most exciting football to watch but can yield points even when playing top teams.

The answer to why Gus left Brighton in the way he did is that nobody really knows - there was obviously a bust up of some kind between him and Tony Bloom the chairman.

 

Bloom claims that Poyet told him in March that he wanted to leave at the end of the season - there was some talk that Sunderland were considering for the manager there but were unwilling to pay the £2.5 million to buy out Poyet's contract.  Poyet has denied that he said he was going to leave - you pays your money and take your choice.

 

It's all very much pure speculation and has generated hundreds of posts on the Seagull fan's forum the 'North Stand Chat'
